Alice Lane Townhomes is proposing to comprehensively redevelop the 0.47-acre site at 980-990 Alice Lane. The proposal includes demolishing two existing multi-family apartment buildings consisting of a total of eight units and constructing three new three-story multi-family residential townhome-style buildings with 10 units, one of which would be designated below market rate (BMR). The proposed townhome development would include 23 parking spaces, 19 of which would be covered garage parking and four of which would be uncovered surface parking. 

The applicant is proposing development in the R-3 (Apartment) zoning district on a lot located around the El Camino Real/Downtown Specific Plan Area. The overall proposal includes:

  • Total Dwelling Units: 10 (either for rental or for sale)
  • BMR Units: one (moderate income)
  • Total Proposed Gross Floor Area: 16,537 square feet
  • Floor Area Ratio (FAR): 0.8
  • Proposed Building Height: 33 feet (three stories)
  • Total Parking Spaces:
    - Covered Vehicular Spaces: 19 
    - Uncovered Vehicular Spaces: 4
  • Open Space: 8,577 square feet

The following City actions (e.g. agreements, permits, analyses, and reviews) would be required for the proposed project:

  • Environmental Review
  • Architectural Control
  • Below Market Rate (BMR) Housing Agreement
  • Heritage Tree Removal Permits (if required)

Current Status

The City deemed the application incomplete on July 20, 2026, due to required items that were missing from the application.
